Joining for the first mint of the Tinian Stable Coin

I started the week back home with a visit to Tinian to learn more about the CNMI’s new effort exploring the world of digital assets. The CNMI Legislature recently passed a law to create a Tinian stablecoin, and I had the chance to meet with local leaders and witness the minting of its very first coin. This is a fascinating initiative, and during our conversation, we discussed what steps both the CNMI and the federal government need to take to ensure strong regulatory frameworks are in place. Digital assets are a hot topic in Washington, and I look forward to working with our local leadership to align federal interests with our own goals—so we get this right from the start.
